This is one way to ease the water charge burden.

The term sweating buckets is lost on Lyoto Machida because he perspires enough to fill a small lake. The Brazilian is clashing with Luke Rockhold tonight in the Octagon for what looks likely to earn the victor a shot at the the light heavyweight title and he wasn't about to let something like a weigh-in hold him back. Before the fighters took for the scales yesterday, UFC President Dana White snapped this video of Machida relaxing surviving in a sweat box with layers covering him and his sauna suit to help shred the excess pounds and make the weight. The results are frightening as Machida unfolds a bit of his suit and lets a waterfall of sweat pour from him. Needless to say, he made the weight.

Holy shit!!! Lyoto Machida cutting weight. Weighs ins start in 30 mins on FOX Sports 2.
